Carnivorous Plants Trip 2008 - Northern Michigan

Linear-Leaved Sundew in Michigan

Drosera linearis


I visited northern Michigan to observe Drosera linearis habitats. This is Lake Huron.

The day was cloudy with an approaching storm.  But the sky was fairly light. The flowers started to open fully around 10:00am.
The flowers then started to close swiftly around 2:00pm.

Note six petals of this flower. This has more pistils and stamens than a normal flower has.
Note the deep-pink stigma tips. The petal tips are also pinkish.
